Alpha Axel's POV As I walked into the dungeon, I could feel the tension in the air. The guards looked up as I entered, their expressions wary."Make sure no one gets in here, especially Athena," I warned them. "If anything happens to the prisoners before the interrogation, your heads will be on the chopping block."The guards nodded nervously, understanding the gravity of my threat. I turned on my heel and made my way back to Rachel's room, hoping to find her there.But when I entered, the room was empty. I frowned, wondering where she could have gone. I pulled out my phone and dialed her number."Rachel, where are you?" I asked as soon as she picked up."I'm out running some errands," she replied. "Is everything okay?"I hesitated, debating whether to tell her about my suspicions about Racheal or not. But before I could say anything, she continued, "I'll be back soon. Don't worry, I'll be safe."I sighed, relieved that she was okay. "Just be careful, okay? I'll see you when you get

"What is Athena doing here?" he inquired, his voice laced with concern.Athena, standing nearby, replied calmly, "I can leave if my presence is not welcome."The queen, sensing the tension, intervened, "No, Athena, please stay." Turning to Axel, she added, "Let's talk."Axel nodded, leading his mother to a secluded corner where they engaged in a heated discussion, their voices hushed but their expressions intense. I could tell they were arguing about Athena's unexpected presence.After a while, Axel returned to the table and took my hands, his eyes filled with regret. "I'm sorry," he whispered.I squeezed his hands reassuringly. "It's fine, Axel. We'll figure this out."As dinner progressed, I noticed a shift in the air.

Alpha's Mate Chapter 51
Alpha Axel's POVI ran towards the big white circle, my heart pounding in my chest as I saw Rachael convulsing with her body shaking uncontrollably. A strong wave flung me away, but I quickly regained my footing and saw her mother holding her, chanting some spells. Soon, Rachael calmed down, but she was unconscious. Her mother beckoned me to come forward, but I hesitated, unsure of what had just happened."It's alright, come closer," her mother reassured me. With a deep breath, I cautiously put a foot into the circle. Nothing happened. Encouraged, I rushed towards Rachael's body, feeling the coldness of her skin despite her still breathing."Let's take her to her room," her mother said, her voice filled with urgency. Without hesitation, I picked up Rachael and hurried into her room, her mother and mine following closely behind.

I knew I had to act quickly before she woke up and ruined everything.I could feel someone following me as I made my way to my car. I smiled to myself, knowing it was Alpha Axel. He must have put a trail on me because he was starting to have doubts about my loyalty.

I demanded, my voice cold and menacing.One of the intruders, a young man with fear in his eyes, refused to speak. I could see the hesitation in his eyes, the struggle to keep his secrets hidden.I turned to my beta, Daniel, who stood by my side, his expression unreadable. "They won't talk," I said, frustration creeping into my voice.Daniel placed a hand on my shoulder, his touch grounding me. "Perhaps we should give them some time to reconsider," he suggested calmly.I shook my head, my anger boiling over. "No, I need answers now," I growled, my eyes flashing with fury.I noticed the young man was on the verge of breaking, his resolve crumbling under the pressure.

The door creaked open as a guard opened it and I entered, finding Ardolf sitting by the fireplace, his gaze intense as he looked up at me."Ardolf, we need to act now. Rachel is unconscious," I began, urgency lacing my words.Ardolf's eyes narrowed slightly as he considered my words. "We should hold off for now. Rushing into things could make matters worse," he replied, his voice steady."But we don't have time! Alpha Axel suspects me, and he even had a palace guard trailing me," I insisted, the weight of the situation pressing down on me."Why did you come here then, knowing you were being followed?"

"Time to wake up, Miss," he grunted.I shot up, my eyes narrowing as I glared at him. "Don't you dare touch me with your filthy hands," I spat, my voice laced with venom.The guard recoiled slightly, his expression apologetic. "I'm sorry, but your presence is requested. You are needed in the grand hall," he explained, gesturing for me to follow him.I knew what this meant. It was time. With a resigned sigh, I got up and followed the guard through the dimly lit corridors of the Palace.When we finally reached the grand hall, I was met with the stern gazes of all the elders gathered there.
